Are you guys familiar with TaoBao.com
 

Hi guys,

I have lots of friends overseas that orders from Taobao but I also heard that they now ship to internataionally.

Have anyone tried ordering from that site and ship to Canada?

Thanks

Ordering is not a problem, just expect to receive it 2 months later with their free shipping

I order it. The whole shipping to other countries depends on the sellers. Some seller will do it and some have no idea what you are talking about. So if you go into their store and want to ship something overseas you need to message them and ask. That's the first way.

The second way is to use EMS. So there are store on TaoBao that specially will ship your items to overseas. What you do is send all of the items you purchase to their address. They will then put all of your items in a box and send it to you. Most of them I use EMS.

To be honest is not really cheaper than say Ebay but the stuff you purchase from TaoBao have more styles (clothing anyways) but the quality is questionable. Now I use ship them to my ex plaxe and she usually send them out to me and I pay her through Wechat. Much easier and cheaper.

I was hoping to buy this.........lego knockoff lol

Mostly cheap knock off shits with poor quality. Well you get what you pay.

One of my buddies in hk bought one and hearing from him quality is actually pretty good.

But the issue is shipping to Canada..............Lego version retails $350 CAD

Knockoff are a whole different world in china now. You really do get what you pay for. A lot of the higher end knockoff is close in quality to the real thing especially for something as simple as lego.

show me the link, I am buying one!

EDIT
found a yellow one..
328RMB = $45?

Groupbuy?

I am buying off AliExpress instead. Ordering from this seller, hope it will be good as I never ordered off AliExpress before.

not familiar with taobao...but i'm familiar with

I was expecting...

don't expect the pic that you will receive from the seller

My family frequently orders from aliexpress. Everything is good and dandy until the item passes the border into Canada. You lose all tracking thanks to Canada Post. They explicit state all international tracked items won't be tracked in Canada.

buyer feedback saying it builds just like a real one, but some sets have many missing pieces lol, but the seller is willing to ship them back right away.

damn, I am buying the orange (not yellow, need to check my eyes) one for sure, hopefully will get one to arrive Hong Kong after Chinese new year.


go to taobao.com and paste "乐拼911" in the search box. you will see those $3XX knockoff lol

I buy Lego all the time, but Lepin (name of the Lego Knockoff) is just ridiculous! lol no shame, they even copied the Lego Disney Castle and a lot of other Legos

Taobao is great if you live in HK or China. But no one can fit it in their luggage for me [emoji24]

Ordered Minicooper, GT3, and pirate of the Caribbean, 600rmb = 100cdn lol, let's see how it goes

I am jealous, its $120 from Aliexpress just for the porsche :yuno:

You living in HK?

shit.... now I am intrigued....My parents are leaving this week to spend lunar new year in China, will be back by end of Feb....

I might get one just for shits and giggles, then my sister in law is going back in Aug... by that time, if the quality is on par (will post photos), I might get her to bring back a couple of sets

The porsche shouldn't be that expensive...50 is the most I would pay

Good luck with our customs when they search out any knockoff shit

Love toaboa

Recently, a friend bought a couch and dining table for their new place. Shipped to shenzhen, then had it driven down to HK

Taobao is great for things arent crazy (u know big electronic items and stuff like that)

I order my phone cases on taobao, seller sells me $2 phone case and include screen protector, cleaner, headphone jack plug and a headphone holder for free (those things arent really expensive anyways but its free)

Taobao has a 7 day return policy, after 7 days if nothing goes wrong your money will automatically be transferred to the seller, but if anything goes wrong with in 7days u can sent it back free of charge

Im not too sure about international taobao thought

I was thinking of using taobao for Kaws/be@rbrick toys, anyone ever try? $1000 vs $50

taobao's awesome. Bought 90% of the materials and furniture used in my home renovation from Taobao lol. I am in china though, so shipping takes 2-3 days for everything, and returning things is pretty easy. Gotta read the reviews to see quality of the stuff you're buying. I think there's services now setup overseas to help you buy from Taobao. You don't have to worry about a thing and goods get shipped to your door, albeit a bit pricier since thats how the service makes money.
